VOLCANO IN THE HIMALAYAH MOUNTAINS. There seems to be no doubt that a volcane has been discovered in the liimalaysth mon , n• tains. The following account of it in Dr. Brew ! . seer's Journal of Science, newly published, has been communicated to him from India : "I now send you an interesting account of the volcanic sp pearance of the Purneah district, that yen may, have seen al, luded to in the newspapers. The mountain is one of the high., eat in the whole range, and is visible occasionally from the eastern side of the Burhampooter, south of the harrow Hlls, and also, I believe, from Bbougilpore, but too indistinctly to admit of our acting the column of smoke observed by 111 r. Barnes. Several years ago, when examining this prat from Deenhutta, with a good telescope, I observed a singular look. ing fissure in the side of it, so remarkable, that I took a sketch of it at the time. I think it is highly probable that this is an extinguished crater ; and if the smoke actually proceeds from a volcano, it may even be the one in action, as it is on the east side of the peak, and the peak might prevent this appearance being seen from the southward. " In the early part of February, 1825,* my brother and my self were on onr return from the hill north of Rungapannee, when, early in the morning, just as the sun rose above the ho, rizon, I observed a thick Cloud, apparently smoke, rifting per pendicularly from the highest point of the mountain, • which, after ascending to a considerable height, in a thick dense co. lumn, took an easterly direction from the upper part of it, as if it had been carried away by the wind, detached parts of it, being separated like small white clouds. The column of smoke continued to exhibit the same aspect as when it was first seen, and exactly resembled the smoke of a tierce fire, after ascend ing far above the influence of the propelling power. At this time the atmosphere was beantifullyclear for many successive days ; and the appearance above described continued precisely the same, only at times the column of smoke seeme d to be larger and more donee than at others, but always rising straight up, as if rushing from a crater, and the top always illsParslng in the air on reaching a certain height. " From having been lung in the habit of observing the snowy mountains whenever they wore visible, and accustomed to View them for many years past, I may say that I am perfectly fa. miller with their appearance : and I was so forcibly struck [monied on the day above-men. with the different a s pe cts the y tinned, that I thought it possible that a volcano was in action. This opinion, and the desire which every man would feel to witness so grand and sublime a spectacle, has led me to observe it very closely ever since, whenever I could discern the peak I and although no eruption of flame has been seen from this place, which is three miles due west of Rungannee, yet the smoke has continued in th e same form and the sa m e direction as above stated. It was once carried westerly by the wind, and once that I remember; but at another times the head of it was wafted to the east, " The very same appearance continued to present itself until the warm weather began; but the annosphere was then so hazy as to obscure the mountain altog,ether during its continu ance, nor have the-rains, which are only just setting in, brought them yet within view. " I am not in the habit of observing, and still less of describ ing, the phenomena of nature, and I fear you may not fully comprehend the impression which I wish to convey ; but if you figure to yourself a vast column of smoke rushing violently from the flue of a strong furnace, black at th bottom, and burning clearer as it ascends, and the wind dispersing the top of the shaft when it rises above the influence of the tire, and you will have its appearance in a few words. " The peak on which this phenomenon is seen, is that re markable rocky one due north of Rungapannee, and the most elevated of the whole range seen front thence. But I ant Or opinion that, if it really be a volcano, the crater is shunted on the north side of the highest point, because , wh en the smoke ' seen, the peak on our side wait distinctly visible , an d the smooke seemed to me behind it. It is probable that some lower eminence, concealed from us by the highest point, may be the seat of it. " It is hardly possible to believe that the appearance! now described can arise from a (gond, as it is not usual for clouds to retain the very same form and shape for months together, nor to ' appear In the same identical 111/04 The summits of al l the other peaks remained clear and bright at usual , during the *hole time that the smoke was observed." r • The letter of which this is an extract, is dated Thoon ke Pitrneab, June 13, 1825. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MONMOUTH, 51. tacit 28. CIVIL. SI DE.-310NMOUTH RIOT. THE KING v. yatcE AND.OTHERS. This was an indictment against Joseph Price, Esq., a Ma gistrate ofthe county of Monmouth, and eleven other persons, for an alleged riot and assault. The case excited intense in terest in this town, and the Court was crowded to excess from the moment it was opened, by the two patties into which the population are divided—the Duke of Beaufoits and the Inde pendents. Witnesses on both sides were ordered out of Court. Mr. Cirkwoon opened the case,—Gentlemen of the Jury. 1 rather lament that the first time I have the honour of address lug a Jury oldie county of Monmouth, I have to state to them a case which, if made out in evidence, reflects disgrace upon at least one man who holds a considerable station in the county. 'rids is an indictment against twelve persons for a riot, and the first person named in the indictment, is Mr. Joseph Price, who, I understand, is a gentleman of distinction, and has been, by the special commission of his Majesty, intrusted with the con. servation of the peace in this county—at least, he among others;, and yet this case will present to you the singular spectable of a must outrageous riot, organized, Itesded,and conducted by a magistrate, who ought to have., preserved the peace. Now, Gentlemen, I will mite theiact of the case. On Thursday, the 4th of November, 1824, slr. Hughes, who was then the Mayor of this town, according to ancient custom, treated his fellow-townsmen and their ladies with a ball in the Town.hall. While they were enjoying their festivities, a numerous party went to Mr. Price's house, where they entered by a back-door. They then came out and assembled at a public-hOuse here, called the Masons' Arms; and there, after they had been gorged with ale, Mr. Price joined them. Ile came from the parlour into the kitchen, and having mounted a chair, he harangued the mop. Having done that, they sallied forth with the band of the whine before them, organized in something like military array, and marched to the front of this hull, about ten o'clock at night, where the Mayor and his friends were assembled, and were enjoying themselves accord ing to ancient and accustomed usage. .ifter a short pause they made a rush at the hall.door, attempted to break in, and sere ral of them cried out, " We will oust the Mayor as we oust ed somebody else." I'o what they alluded. I shall not now stop to inquire; but Mr. Price on that occasion was must active in encouraging them, and exciting them to a breach of the peace. The constables attempted to keep the doors fast, and one of them being outside, was most cruelly assaulted and out rageously beaten. Ile was, however, rescued from his peri lous situation ; and he will detail the particulars to you. The mob then proceeded down Church-street, preceded by the band, and when they came in front of the houses of those persons who were obnoxious to them, the band was directed to imitate groans and all sorts of most indecent and disgusting noises. Were a portion of the assembly in Court burst out into unrestrained laughter.) Mr. Baron Gaanow—lf time Court is againdistorbed in that way, I will semi a certain portion of the disorderly to gaol, and the rest of them out oftourt. However the people of Mon mouth may enjoy indecent dissurbances,• ' they shall not dis turb the proceedings of a Court of Justice while lam in it. I nisall have my eye upon the persons present. I shall commit upon my own observation, and I expect the officers to do their duty. Alr. Cuawoon resumed--.gentlemen, I am much obliged to his Lordship for repressing the- spirit of insubordination.— \ The mob proceeded down Church-street, Gentlemen, until they came to the house of Mr. Syner, who is a pastry-cook, and there they commenced an attack upon the door and shut. tern. Mrs. Syner had just prepared to go to the ball, and her ' husband was getting ready to accompany her. Ile went to his door, hearing the violent noise that was made, and he was as nutted by the mob, His wife also was going out to see what was the matter, when some ruffian dashed_ his_hat In her face, gave her a black eye, snd tore off smite of her little ornaments Mr. Price was at that time among them, and encouraging them, as I understand ; and I *ay, a man" who could thus act, and encourage such an outrage upon a woman, I know hint not, but Nature, ever true to her We*, would depict his character in his face---lie is neither genuine English, nor genuine Welch. After this the mob proceetkel to escort Mr. Price home in triumph. Ile addressed them at his own house, atxl told them it was time to go- some. , They went to the Masons' Arms again, and after being overwhe lmed whit ale and with sleep, they dispersed. 1 • have thus detailed to you the outline of this case, and I shall leave it for the witnesses to detail the particulers. A special Jury has been summoned by the defendants., bat fur what reason I know not. Whether they were afraid of the lament indignation of the peasantry, who usually fonn the common juries, I cannot say ; but. gen tlemen, I am glad to see you here, for 1 ant sure you will give an honest verdict, and distill that justice demands. Jane* Berry.—l am a nailer. I remember the 4th of No. vember, 11124, alien the Mayor had his ball. 1 was at the Masons' Arms, in Monnow-street, on the evening of that day. , There were ab o ut 200 persons there. I know Mr. Price's person, and I saw hint sitting in the house. There were about forty or fifty of the persons in the kitchen, and I saw Mr. Price come in, and, standing upon a chair, he said something to them all about Dr. Bevan. I cannot say what it was. lie than went out, but what became of him I Cannot say. I be. lieve he went into. the parlour. After about three quarters of an hour, the mob went into the street, and there was a band of music there. Mr Jones told them all to come out and take Mr. Price home, and when they came back they should have some more ale. They came out of the house, and the band beat off. The marched up to the hall, where I heard the music inside, and I suppose dancing was going on. They made a stand in front of the hall, and then James lane (a defendant) and Edward Junter (not a defendant) said, " Et--n their eyes, pitch into them 1" Then James bane a nd Edward Junter began, to drive at One of the constables, I be. lieve, They hit him, and began leathering him-1 mean beat. ing hint. Ile had not done any thing to them before that.— Mr. Price was present. Ile 'nod its the middle of the mob...* I did not see hint do any thing. I continued with the mob until they went all round, and took Mr. Nice. home. At sortie places they played tunes like groans. 1 saw the mob when be fore Mr. Syner's door; I dare any there wete between two and three hundred of them. I saw one of them earth hold of Mrs. syner by the cap. I saw her face afterwards, but it was not marked. John Rainey-1 am a master plumber and glazier in this town. I rem e mb e r Thursday night, the 4th of NoVember, 11124, Mr. Iluglies, the then Mayor, gave a ball that night, and 1 was one of the stewards. I rceollro being on the stairs of the hall that night. One of the door.keepers, n men of the name of Davis, went away without my leave, after 1 had given out the beer-tickets, which was at ten o'eltick. There was then a disturbance. Th e music was the fist thing that arrested my attention. There well then a degree of noise existing, but not a great deal. Th a t occasioned me to go down to the foot of the staircase, and from that I went into the market.house, and saw a considerable number of p ersons coolin g from the direction o f Monnow-street , a nd the y moved along; until they crim e n e arly to the centre of the market..houae.— I think there were two or three huudred, and they were matching with a degree of regulatity until they Cana to the centre ut the front of the Market-place, anti then the word " halt" watt given. The musics then played " glad save the King," and the crowd burraed. In the crowd I observed AIN Joseph Price, a magistrate of the county, Mr. William and, I believe, Mr..lames Jones. I particularly nu. Met' err. Price waving his stick instead of his hut, when they huzzael Upon that I observed sense siegree of bustle in the mob in front of the market-house, and I particularly noticed a man whom I did not know, in a smock.frock, who said, " Follow me." A general rush then took place towards the door of the Town-hall, with cries of " Go it, go it." I purticularli noticed the ph rase "We will oust them as we did vatei. „ then went in, an d d os ed the door, which wits acce lerated by the *nob pushing against it as the door dosed in wards.

Croes-examined by Mr. TAIf2CCON.--I have been one of the burgesses of this town, hut lam ousted. I entered into a rule at Court to disclaim, if Mr. Yates wn4 defeated, and I have disclaimed. We have nu Mayor now in, Monmouth, to the best of my knowledge. I did not see any Mayor at church, with the Judges, last Sunday. Mr. Price, the defendant, de coyed the Mayor into his house one night, and after milking hint tipsy, got him to sign a deed of disclaimer. I very much question whether he would have done melt a thing if he was sober, because I saw hiM on the 31o,day previous, and he Made several declarations that he would stand the contest, let the issue be what it might. I watched Ides that particular night, but I did not see him home from Mr. Price's hoose. Several other witnesses were called, but each successive wit ness differed from the onewho preceded him. Mr. Tatts-rox then addressed the Jury on behalf of the defendants.--Gentlemen, knowing, as I think I pretty well did know, the nature of the case on the other side, I think 'I never,. in the whole course of my life, saw a case so matte out. You must guess the sort of spirit by which it is influenced, by what you have seen to day. Contrasting the case opened to you with that proved, you see nothing but contradiction front the begin. ring to end, of the most extraordinary description. Sty Learned Friend, who conducts the prosecution,' has most ample cause to complain that he has been inishutrnottl, intilod. Anti deceived : but he is only diseharghig a profestional amy l -00W no one will impute any thing to him which it not perfectly consistent.—.

(Before the Lord Chief Baron A ix): sl , 11)1;11.) THE JCIPiG e. CHARLES. This was an indictment for alleged warn) and corrupt per. jury, - assigned upon evidence given by the defendant on the trial at law of a cause Coleman v. Delaseux. It appeared in evidence that the defendant, who is the son of a respectable attorney, had been witness for his father's partner, Mr. Coleman, who at the last StrutterAsaizes for this county, brought an action against Mr. Delasaux, the attorney, for assaulting him at the Canterbury races in BIS. There had been some tuisunderaanding between Mr. Coleman and Mr. Dehtsaux. Meeting on Barham Downs, on the 17th August, the latter demanded of the former whether be had called him a scoundrel or a swindler? Mr. COlomm replied that he did not. Mr. Delasaux then said, " Did you say I was a blackguard ?" Mr. Coleman answered, " If you lent me that message by your clerk, [certainly did, anti do now." Whereupon Mr. Delasaux struck Mr. Coleman with his horse. whip. On the trial of the action for this assault, the defendant, whole a youth of 17, was examined as a, material witness tostte - transaction. lie stated that be was near the spot wi era iftC assault was committed. Mr. Delasaux, he said, charged Mr. Coleman with - something which he, the defendant, did not hear, but whatever it was, Mr. Coleman denied it; and that the assault was committed upon that denial. The Lord Chief Justice Best, who tried the cause, dwelt upon Mr. Coleman's denial of what Mr. Delasaux charged him with, as circum. stance of aggravation on the part of the latter ; and the Jury, under his Lordahip's directions, found a verdict for the plain. tiff, damages M. Mr. Delasaux afterwards moved for a new ttial, , on the ground that the damages were excessive; but the Courtrefused the rule. Mr. Delasaux then preferred the pre. sent Indictment, and it was alleged that the defendant had spoken falsely in swearing that Mr. Coleman had denied the accuse. tion made by Mr. Delasaux,; and it was farther all;ged, that In fact the defendant was at a different part of the racecourse at the time of the assault, and conseuently could not have seen the transaction to which he depose d. Mr. Delasaux and other witnesses proved that they did not see the defendant on the racecourse at the tune of the assault, and that Mr. Cole man had admitted that be called Mr. Delis:tux a blackguard under the circumstances above-mentioned. On Ida cross. examination, Mr, Delasaux denied that he had told any body that lie prosecuted young Charles from revengc lie admitted that he had Said,' that revenge was something sweet." Ile had suffered severely ; the Court of King's Bench had refused him a new trial. On the part of the defendant it Was proved that he Was near the .spot at the time of the assault, and mina it was very pos. Bible for hint to have been mistaken in his account of the oral part of the communication between Mr. Coleman and Mr. I)elastiux. Dr. Burt, master of King's School at Canterbury, proved that the defendant. was a pupil of his, and that he was as youth of intimpeacitable veracity. lie never found hint gitilty of pre. variation, much less of falsehood. The Loan Cunt' PAUON summoned up the case, and the Jury immediately found the defendant Not .Guitty. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.:—VORK, Mantel 20. NI)/0 t'. TIV.I.E. (CORONER). The defendant pleaded" guilty" to the charge, which he had traversed from the last Assizes to the present, for making false returns of Inquests which had never come under his cognizance, making the tieing dead, whereas they had not " ohifted off this mortal coil," but rose up in judgment against him, for which the Court sentenced him to pay a fine of W. to the King, and to be confined one week in lode Castle, anti further to - be confined until that line be pild, and to vacate his situation of Coroner for the county, which he has since resigned.—We believe that this is the first instance of the kind upon record of so singular a chcitinsance.
